Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen #95: Crockpot Chili

Time for Kids and a Mom in the Kitchen

(A weekly linky to share what you and your children have created in the kitchen.)

The linky is at the bottom.

This past week we have set aside our normal curriculum to have some fun with this month's Poppins Book Nook theme of "The Wild West." In celebration of this western theme, I decided the children and I would make a traditional western dish, chili. I'm not sure how authentic our recipe is, but it is our go-to chili meal. The recipe comes from the cookbook that I received with my crock pot. Though we have it a 2-3 times a year, this is the first time the children have helped prepare it.

Welcome to Tots and Me... Growing Up Together, where I share homeschool activities, crafts, recipes, and tips, both of my own creation and those I have found around the web. I also love to share reviews and the occasional giveaway.

About Me

I am a stay at home mom. I have always wanted to teach, started college with a major in Early Education, but ended up staying home with my son (which turned into staying home with my 2 sons and daughter). Years later ended up with an Associates Degree in Human Services. Which helped me get a director's position at the Montessori I was working at. I am now staying home with my 3 young children. While my older children are off in public school we are homeschooling. I am doing what I always dreamed of doing, teaching!! I feel this is where God has led and willed me to be. I will be here to "Train up [my children] in the way [they] should go: [so] when [they are] old, [they] will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6
